Electricity from coal: N2O emissions UK 1990-2017

This statistic shows the amount of nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions attributable to production of electricity from coal in the United Kingdom (UK) from 1990 to 2017, in thousand metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e). It shows that N2O emission levels fluctuated over the years, decreasing overall. In 1990, emissions totaled more than one million metric tons of CO2e, whereas 239,000 metric tons of CO2e were emitted in 2017.
